At MySpectrum, we seek to support those with ASD and their loved ones with the emotional aspects of ASD, as well as any other mental health condition that may also be compounding the ASD symptoms.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be effectively applied in therapy sessions for individuals with autism to address cognitive and behavioral challenges. I often focus on identifying and modifying maladaptive thought patterns, fostering emotional regulation, and improving social skills. By emphasizing cognitive restructuring and behavioral interventions, CBT offers a structured and goal-oriented approach to help individuals with autism navigate social interactions and manage stressors more effectively.
My three children are all on the autism spectrum in various ways. I have learned alot over the years about autism spectrum. I focus mostly on CBT skills, communication skills and social skills with this group.
